I was hoping to do some refactoring around Geliang's code, but I didn't
manage to do that so far. I will to see if it is fine to apply Geliang's
patch (after netdevconf) and do the refactoring after.

@Geliang: do you mind rebasing this series, please? No hurry, I can also
check later on. (And sorry for the delay on that)

Cheers,
Matt
